Happy Birthday Reese - Part 1

Reese is eleven!  Oh man!  I can hardly believe it!  Because of the big gap in ages between Bran and Reese, she kinda feels like my baby - because she was for so long.  So it is kinda freakin' me out that she's growing up!  She is such a sweet, fun girl.  We are so glad she's a part of our family.

For her birthday this year she wanted to take some friends to swim in Jackson.  So we planned a Saturday, called the friends, and off we went!  Much fun to follow!
Well, we arrive at the pool in Jackson and see many buses parked out front.  Oh no.  Yep - the girls go and check and there is a swim meet today which means we can't swim until 4:00.  It is now 1:00.  If you only knew how many times this happens to me!  Sheeesh!  You'd think I'd actually pick up the phone and call the pool BEFORE I drive! In my defense - I always check the website to find out swim times and such - but apparently they don't actually post when special events come up.  Note to self - CALL!!
So what to do now?!?   . . . . . 
Ah ha!  Grandpa Jonesy's house!
So we head up to Trinity Ranch.  Great idea!  And it was!  Grandpa let them play around the barn for a bit and then took them up to the hot tub.  Oh the fun that was had!  It was a cold, snowy and windy day - perfect hot tub weather!






Oh the fun!  Then Grandpa let them walk around the main house and look around.





 So actually the day worked out better than I planned.  We went back to Jackson, went swimming as planned, ate some dinner, and then home.  It was a great day!
